| 0:00.0 | Hello, everybody and welcome to Fantasy NBA today, Sports Ethos show brought to you by our great partners at Fanduel. I'm Aaron Bruske, joined as always by the Hall of Famer, Steve, Dr. A. Alexander. And we got a lot happening today. As you can see, news is breaking left and right. Everything's moving at the speed of light. We're going to have different programming. Instead of two episodes, we're going to do just one show. |
| 0:22.6 | This is going to allow us to connect everything from all the latest trade news to any moves that might happen while we're live, while still working through the usual daily segments in a single episode. |
| 0:32.0 | Also, we will have Q&A with Dr. A after this. |
| 0:35.5 | So make sure you join him live on the Sports Ethos YouTube channel and get your questions in. |
| 0:40.6 | Let's get started. |
| 0:42.2 | The Dallas Mavericks are trading 10-time NBA All-Star Anthony Davis, Jaden Hardy, DeAngelo Russell, and Dante Exum, to the Washington Wizards for Chris Middleton, A.J. Johnson, Malachi, Branham, Marvin Bagley, the third, and two first-round picks. Two first-round picks. And three, second rounders. Okay, we're going to have to suss all of that stuff out. Doc.

| 1:52.8 | And you've got Kishon George coming on. |
| 1:55.0 | You've got Bill Al-Kulibala, you got Justin Chimpenny, got Trey, Trey Johnson. |
| 2:00.8 | So props to Washington, man. |
| 2:03.5 | I like the fact that they're going for it. |
| 2:05.0 | I don't love Anthony Davis. |
| 2:06.6 | Like I don't trust that part of this deal. |
